Guest post by my friend, Mark Lewis, whose words bring together the Finding Beauty in Every Face and Place mission perfectly. All the words shared here today are Mark's. And the photo of the primrose was taken by my friend, Sadie Lewis. These flowers have a beauty that can be seen with the eyes, but they also have a beauty that goes far beyond eyesight.

The Value of Taking a Break
All of this being at home, along with all this working at home has been so very interesting and challenging at the same time. I am not complaining because I don't think complaining is beneficial; but, I want to share something I felt the Lord reinforcing with me this last week.

I hope that you are finding encouragement ... Read More about Scripture Memory Team 2020 – Verse 5

Recently I stopped while along the way and enjoyed some wisteria that seemed to call out to me to please stop and come enjoy the beauty. It was just me and the wisteria. Just me and the fragrant blooms and twining stems. I was then inspired to write a little poem: Standing under the beauty of this ornamental vine, All seems right with the world. Yes, all is good and fine. Standing under this lavender to purple curtain Of a Creator, I am most ... Read More about Finding Beauty in Every Face and Place – Wisteria
